Winger exit on cards

Sunderland winger Emanuele Giaccherini is set to make his move to Napoli this weekend after he completes his medical at the club.

Reports in Italy claim the two clubs have reached an agreement over a fee for the winger who has one year left on his Black Cats deal but is certain to move on this summer.

The Italy international has always been expected to leave the Stadium of Light this summer, although his impressive performances at Euro 2016 in France over the summer had led to some questioning whether he could stay on Wearside, having spent much of last season on loan at Bologna.

There had been some suggestions that Giaccherini, who scored four goals in 32 appearances for the Black Cats, could end up at Chelsea under former Italian boss Antonio Conte but a return to Italy is now close to being completed.
